Steve Hindman

In 2002 while teaching I became interested in Celtic interlacing and how I could apply the techniques in my own abstract work. Through much experimentation I produced something fresh new and original.

I have been excited by the power of color. Abstract art which connects, can help the viewer gain a new language of images, enabling him to read artworks by understanding interesting relationships of movement, space, texture, color and design.

My work is an attempt to give form to an inner creative impulse, to impart a sense of discovery, wonder, experimentation and meditation.

My technique always begins by painting layers of transparent and opaque acrylic stains creating an ambiguous background. I overlay an interwoven, double knotwork pattern in fine gold irridescent acrylic paint. Each individual piece invites the viewer to explore. I present a new vision to an ancient Celtic tradition creating attention getting artworks which are a manifestation of feeling, creativity, and technical skill applied to the art of my ancestors.

I thoroughly enjoy working in this manner and hope to inspire others to be interested in the work.
